If you're looking for a new challenge this weekend, bake the iconic German Chocolate Cake from William Greenberg Desserts' Cookbook.
The William Greenberg version elevates the traditional German Chocolate Cake with a deeper, more complex flavor profile that balances perfectly, chocolatey layer cakes sandwiched with chocolate fudge and covered in creamy coconut icing.
The cookbook recalls why it's named German Chocolate Cake, not because it comes from Germany but because baker Samuel German, who developed a dark chocolate bar for Baker's Chocolate company in 1852.
Assembling the cake with the filling between each layer can get a little messy but it's deeply satisfying. The final result was a true tribute to the German Chocolate Cake that has kept customers returning to William Greenberg Desserts for generations. You can find the recipe below:
